Guest Maj Millard Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 On Saturday the 8th Nov I have about a six hour layover in Brisbane ( don't ask...connections etc) before travelling onto Canberra for the Strategy meeting on the Sunday later that arvo. So far I reckon I'll whip over and pay homage to Smittys old bus (Southern Cross) which should take care of half an hour or so, then maybe jump on the train to Southbank for a river cruise or whatever. Don't know Brissy that well so a look around won't hurt. Failing all that I do know where the Breakfast Creek pub is, so can always saunter up to the old comfortable bar there for some reminiscing, as long as I don't get too pissed and miss my flight. Your boardmember in action !!.....any other suitable suggestions would be welcome. ?..........Maj.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bexrbetter Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Sorry, can't host you, I'm busy attending the official dinner party at the opening of the Australian Consulate in Chengdu on the 9th. Yeah, I know, but wouldn't you throw it in somewhere? Have you been to Southbank by the way? One of the best public parks ever made and the Brisbane Museum and Art Gallery are there as well, take your togs. Get a River Cat from the first terminal closest to the airport to Southbank.
